I recently read an article in Prevention magazine that tells you to go ahead and eat the whole thing!

This theory is all about eating sensibly and going about it in different ways:

Eat well during the week and splurge on the weekend.

Think ahead and figure in your treats. IF you know you are going to have a dessert when you go out to dinner...only eat a half sandwich at lunch.

IF you must eat fast food, pick smaller portions and get the chicken instead of beef.

Make sure something is really worth it if you are going to splurge!

Take a longer walk if you know you might be overeating at a meal that day.

Pick days during the week and eat less and only what is necessary.

Don't starve yourself because later you eat everything in sight.

Control portions and don't eat seconds.

Anyway ladies I liked this article because it made sense to me. I don't know how people diet, starve themselves, or eat only very specific food. I like the idea of sensible eating and exercising...I walk almost every day, but hmmm, the sensible eating needs another good look!

What (if anything) are you doing to battle the bulge?
